Description

Lochbie is originally two cottages dating to the 17th century, with an 18th-century wing added to the south. The building was renovated at some point. It is one storey and attics in height. The central part of the north front has been raised to two storeys. Modern casement windows are present. The thatched roof of the main block is half-hipped at the east end and features an original central chimney stack with pilastered shafts set diagonally on a square base. A later internal stack is located at the east end. The wing to the south has a tiled mansard roof, including one dormer window on the south side.

Local climate

Lochbie sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 79% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
